SYSTEM OVERVIEW FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS EIS AUDIO PANEL & CNS FLIGHT MANAGEMENT AVOIDANCE Flight Management Section 5 Flight Management 5.1 Introduction The G2000 is an integrated flight, engine, communication, navigation and surveillance system. This section of the Pilot's Guide explains GPS navigation using the G2000. The most prominent parts of the system are the Primary Flight Display (PFD), the Multi Function Display (MFD), and the Touchscreen Controller. The information to successfully navigate the aircraft using the GPS sensors is displayed on these units. See examples in the Figure 5-1 and Figure 5-2. Detailed descriptions of GPS navigation functions are discussed later in this section. A brief description of the GPS navigation data on the PFD and MFD follows. Navigation mode indicates which sensor is providing the course data (e.g., GPS, VOR) and the flight plan phase (e.g., Departure (DPRT), Terminal (TERM), Enroute (ENR), Oceanic (OCN), Approach (LNAV, LNAV+V, L/VNAV, LP, LPV), or Missed Approach (MAPR)). L/VNAV, LP, and LPV approaches are only available with SBAS. L/VNAV approaches will be flown as an LNAV approach when SBAS is not available. The Inset Map is a small version of the Navigation Map and can be displayed in the lower left corner of the PFD. When the system is in reversionary mode, the Inset Map is displayed in the lower right corner. The Inset Map is displayed by selecting the Inset Map Settings Softkey. Selecting the Inset Map Settings Softkey again, then selecting the Off Softkey removes the Inset Map. The Navigation Map displays aviation data (e.g., airports, VORs, airways, airspaces), geographic data (e.g., cities, lakes, highways, borders), topographic data (map shading indicating elevation), and hazard data (e.g., traffic, terrain, weather). The amount of displayed data can be reduced by selecting the Detail Softkey on the PFD for the Inset Map, and by the Map Detail Slider on the Touchscreen Controller for MFD maps. The Navigation Map can be oriented three different ways: North Up (NORTH UP), Track Up (TRK UP), or Heading Up (HDG UP). An aircraft icon is placed on the Navigation Map at the location corresponding to the calculated present position. The aircraft position and the flight plan legs are accurately based on GPS calculations. The basemap upon which these are placed are from a source with less resolution, therefore the relative position of the aircraft to map features is not exact. The leg of the active flight plan currently being flown is shown as a magenta line on the navigation map. The other legs are shown in white. There are 28 different map ranges available, from 250 feet to 1000 nm. Range is indicated in the upper left quadrant of the range ring shown around the aircraft icon. This indicated range is the range from the aircraft icon to the range ring, and roughly half the range to the top edge of the displayed map. To change the map range on any MFD map, turn the Joystick counter-clockwise to decrease the range, or clockwise to increase the range. To change the Inset Map range, use the Map Range - and the Map Range + softkeys, or turn the Joystick on the GDU Controller. HAZARD AFCS ADDITIONAL FEATURES APPENDICES INDEX 190-01263-01 Rev.
